    Is the LambdaCore SMTP client really RFC 821 compliant?  "Need MAIL before
    RCPT" seems to imply that the client sends the command in the wrong
    order.  A "minimal" SMTP session should look like this:

    HELO local_hostname
    MAIL FROM: <local_user@local_hostname>
    RCPT TO: <remote_user@remote_hostname>
    DATA
    /* Lines of header */

    /* Lines of message; a line starting with dot gets an extra dot added */
